Summary
Mark Zuckerberg ended Metaās factchecking program on Facebook and Instagram, replacing it with user-submitted āCommunity Notes,ā similar to Twitter.
The move is part of a broader shift to the political right, aligning with Donald Trumpās incoming administration.
Zuckerberg criticized factcheckers as āpolitically biasedā and promised fewer ācensorship mistakes.ā
Meta has also elevated conservatives to key roles and moved content moderation operations from California to Texas, mirroring Elon Muskās strategies.
While the changes may alienate liberals and some advertisers, analysts expect minimal financial impact on Meta.
Look around. No one is correcting them because they arenāt wrong. No one cares about truth. Lies make everyone so much happier.
Disagree. Lies make everyone angrier. Thatās what the lies are designed to do.
I donāt think theyāre designed either way, you can lie to a kid about how long a journey is as they have no real concept of time, this is a white lie, to stop them moaning about being stuck in the car. Lots of people (sheep) just want to be told the grass is greenest right where they are and thereās no need to look any deeper, ignorance is bliss. Lies should make people angry, but for some reason they donāt. Itās almost expected from certain people, like anyone in power will probably lie.
It only works for a short time. It will break. And break more violently the longer it drags on.
